Masked Mirth (1917)
Peculiarly timely is this Vogue Comedy!
Right now while everyone is thinking of war, comes this two reel comedy whose plot is based on an invention to revolutionize warfare. A torpedo-bomb, which, upon exploding in the camp of the enemy, causes the soldiers to laugh till they drop from fatigue, is the very heart and centre of the plot. Foreign spies try to secure the bomb.
